@rezaaslan @Max_Fisher hmm, like to "create" a connection to iran? who is doing it and how?
@Max_Fisher working on an interesting story about slow but deliberate radicalization of the opposition (hence why Nabeel is still in jail)

@sammiejoe@max_fisher There is no connection to Iran. It's a govt lie -
@rezaaslan@max_fisher yep i know. that's why I said "create". What do you mean by radicalization then? Nobody's going Islamist in#Bahrain -
@sammiejoe@max_fisher Moderate voices deliberate stifled. Sectarian ones promoted. -
@rezaaslan@max_fisher interesting. Though I haven't seen much sectarianism on the opposition side yet (in English at least)

@rezaaslan@Max_Fisher Radicalization of the Bahraini opposition? Isn't that a problematic subject? -
@DianaValerie@max_fisher It is result of govt policy -
@rezaaslan@Max_Fisher I was just concerned about attempts to make opposition look illegitimate -
@DianaValerie@max_fisher Its a deliberate govt policy to make this seem like a radical Shia uprising which is becoming self fulfilling -
@rezaaslan@dianavalerie@max_fisher craziest part is they've bulldozed Shia mosques and arrested Shia scholars but still no radicalization
